Auckland, North Harbour and Counties Saturday games will probably cancelled. Waiting to see what Waikato will do.

If Northland club rugby goes ahead, I'm guessing both Wellsford and Tomarata will have to default their games as they're in the Super City borders.
Wellsford are due to host Hikurangi, both teams are out of contention for finals spots so won't make much difference.
Tomarata are due travel play a Semi Final against Mid Western, so would be a real shame if they have to default.

North Harbour Rugby have confirmed the decision that even if we get back to Level 2 by Saturday, there will be NO RUGBY THIS WEEKEND & UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. In the unlikely situation that we get back to Level 1 by Saturday, rugby will proceed as normal. This decision has been supported by our key Rugby committee leaders. The key reasons for this are the lack of time to ensure all the necessary health and safety measures across all clubs, schools and fields under Level 2 conditions are established and signed off. As well as the need to prioritise the safety of people right now whilst also playing our part in combating this new challenge we are all facing. The Union will wait for further information from MoH & NZR to advise on where to from here for rugby in our community. We have also started work on the implications of this decision on our competitive grades and potential scenarios that may occur. We would ask that you please bear with us, as there is much to consider.Senior club rugby in the Counties Manukau region will go ahead this Saturday if the Government reduces the COVID-19 alert level in Auckland from 3 to 2 at midnight on Friday. Following reported cases of community transmission in Auckland on Wednesday night, the city has moved back to a COVID level 3 lockdown while the rest of the country is back in level 2. Under level 3, rugby cannot go ahead. However, under level 2, rugby can go ahead as long as strict COVID-19 protocols regarding crowd control, hygiene measures and contact tracing are in place. While a decision has already been made to call off this weekend’s secondary schools and junior club rugby – a decision that will stand regardless of what alert level Auckland is in on Saturday – there is still a chance senior club rugby matches will take place.

Interesting to see the IDMe contact tracing thing posted on the draws for club footy up here over the weekend.
Wonder how many use it.

Waipu beat Mid Northern 18-15 to go add a 2nd title to their first ever title last season.
MN were lucky to avoid relegation last season, so a great turnaround from them.
